4 While there are differing views of health care reform 7 The impact and uncertainty of health care reform tops the list of more than one healthcare professional Concerns of Healthcare Leaders % expect ED operating margin to decrease 75% identified EDto-Inpatient BIGGEST bottleneck ED Inpa ent 9 out of 10 expect ED volumes to increase 40 million newlyinsured patients from ACA using the ED $ 8 4

5 The Baby Boomers are Here 9 Demographic growth is driven by the elderly: The 65 and older age cohort will experience a 28% growth in the next decade One baby-boomer turns 50 every 18 seconds and one baby-boomer turns 60 every 7 seconds (10,000 a day) This will continue for the next 18 years This cohort will comprise 15% of the total population by 2016 A higher proportion of patients in this cohort, in comparison to other age groups, are triaged with an emergent condition One-quarter of Medicare beneficiaries have five or more chronic conditions, sees an average of 13 physicians per year, and fills 50 prescriptions per year Peter Drucker s Observations on Hospitals and Healthcare 10 The hospital is altogether the most complex human organization ever devised. 5

6 We Know There Are Often Choices to Be Made 11 Moving Toward the Triple Aim Improving care, improving health, reducing costs 12 Improving the U.S. health care system requires simultaneous pursuit of three aims: improving the experience of care, improving the health of populations, and reducing per capita costs of health care. The integrator s role includes at least five components: partnership with individuals and families, redesign of primary care, population health management, financial management, and macro system integration. Preconditions for this include the enrollment of an identified population, a commitment to universality for its members, and the existence of an organization (an integrator ) that accepts responsibility for all three aims for that population. Health Affairs 27, no. 3 (208) /hlthaff Trendwatch 6

7 13 13 It Doesn t Hurt to Have Friends in High Places TJC and Hospital-Wide Patient Flow TJC and the Hospital-Wide Patient Flow Committee: JCR Leadership Standard LD The leaders develop and implement plans to identify and mitigate impediments to efficient patient flow throughout the hospital. Effective for all accredited hospitals on January 1, The Joint Commission says Boarding in the ED requires a hospital-wide solution. * *As reported in ACEP NEWS January 14, 2013 Performance standards put into effect Jan 1, 2013 require hospital leaders namely the chief executive officer, medical staff and other senior hospital managers to set specific goals to: Improve patient flow Ensure availability of patient beds Maintain proper throughput in labs, ORs, inpatient units, telemetry, radiology and post-anesthesia care units We want to make sure that organizations are looking at patient flow hospitalwide, even if the manifestation of a flow problem seems to be in the emergency room. ~ Lynne Bergero, The Joint Commission 14 7

9 Quality, Safety And Service Have Always Been the Core Drivers Of Our Mission and Performance 17 Critical to Quality Door to Doc the Front End 18 Global ED Throughput-Optimizing for Quality, Volume, and Speed Managing Flow at the Back End Dealing with ED Overcrowding Handling Special Patient Populations (e.g. Psych) 18 9

10 Patient Satisfaction as a Measure of 19 Quality 20 Timeliness of care has a strong correlation to patient satisfaction (1,2) with wait time to be treated by a physician having the most powerful association with satisfaction.

12 THE BENEFITS OF FLOW TO YOUR BOTTOM LINE 23 The Business Case for Flow The Opportunity Cost It Can Add Up million $1,086 $9,000 In 2007, 1.9 million people representing 2% of all ED visits left the ED before being seen. These walk-outs represent significant lost revenue for hospitals. A 2006 study found that each hour of ambulance diversion was associated with $1,086 in foregone hospital revenues. A recent study showed that a 1- hour reduction in ED boarding time would result in over $9,000 of additional revenue by reducing ambulance diversion and patients who left without being seen.

13 Dispelling a Common Myth 25 The Business Case for Flow - A Case Study 26 ER Patients Results 40,000 ED Visits x 1 Hr Reduction in LOS 40,000 Hours of ED Capacity/ Year 40,000 Hours of ED Capacity/ 2 Hours per ED Visit 20,000 new ED visits x $100/visit in physician revenue 20,000 potential new visits/year $2,000,000 new revenue for the group 20,000 new ED $400/visit for the hospital $8,000,00 new revenue per year for the hospital New hospital admissions at $3,000 - $7500 per admission 1 more admission per day (365) X $3,000-$7500/ patient admission =$1,095,00-2,737,500/year *(AHRQ-only 6.2% of admissions through the ED are uninsured) 13

14 The Business Case for Flow Continued 27 Average $100 NCR MD income for every walkaway Average $400 in hospital income for every walkaway For a 50,000 visit ED= $50,000 in new MD revenue (no increased overhead) for every 1% reduction in LWBS/LWBTs A 1% reduction in walkaways = $200,000 in new outpatient hospital revenue In 2007, 1.9 million people representing 2% of all ED visits left the ED before being seen (LWBS), typically because of long waits These walk-outs represent significant lost revenue for hospitals A crowded ED limits the ability to accept referrals The #1 Reason To Commit to This Is It s good for the patients and it s good for the people who take care of those patients. ~ Thom Mayer, MD 14
